USA (Philadelphia mint), $10 coronet Liberty eagle, 1861, six-fold bun type, NGC AU 58. Choice example of a common date in an uncommonly high grade of AU and with better eye appeal than other AU 58 pieces. Well-struck with sharp details throughout, stars on obverse particularly defined as opposed to the mushiness found on weaker strikes, minor die cracks and die clashing on reverse, some surface abrasions as is usual, bright gold color with hints of rose toning around elements and significant mint luster all over. In older NGC slab. NGC #1776502-004.
Estimate: $2000-3000
